    Part of Federated Conference on Rewriting, Deduction, and 
	          Programming (RDP'07)  

	** Title and abstract due  22 December 2006 **
	** Deadline for submission  2 January 2006 ***

The TLCA series of conferences serves as a forum for presenting
original research results that are broadly relevant to the theory 
and applications of typed calculi. The following list of topics 
is non-exhaustive:

    * Proof-theory: Natural deduction and sequent calculi, cut
      elimination and normalisation, linear logic and proof nets, 
      type-theoretic aspects of computational complexity 
    * Semantics: Denotational semantics, game semantics,
      realisability, categorical models 
    * Implementation: Abstract machines, parallel execution, optimal 
      reduction, type systems for program optimisation 
    * Types: Subtypes, dependent types, type inference, polymorphism, 
      types in theorem proving 
    * Programming: Foundational aspects of functional and
      object-oriented programming, proof search and logic programming, 
      connections between and combinations of functional and logic 
      programming, type checking

The programme of TLCA'07 will consist of three invited talks and about 
25 papers selected from original contributions. Accepted papers will 
be published as a volume of Springer Lecture Notes in Computer Science 
series (http://www.springer.de/comp/lncs/index.html).

the Programme Committee to assess the merits of the contribution. In
particular references and comparisons with related work should be
included. Submission of material already published or submitted to
other conferences with published proceedings is not allowed. Papers
